If your horse doesn’t enjoy a good groom, becoming anxious, pulls away, winces or fidgets there are a few things that may be going on for the horse.
- The horse has separation anxiety being away from his horse buddies
- The pressure applied when grooming is uncomfortable
- The wrong tool or brush is being used causing discomfort
- The tool or brush is too harsh
- The horse isn’t used to being touched
- The horse is sore
